Taylor's maple/spruce Grand Auditorium has always been a versatile performer, and the 614ce Grand Auditorium edition boasts an array of tone-enhancing refinements that transform maples tone profile into a richer, warmer and more complex voice. As a result, players can expect an even more dynamic and expressive musical tool.

Design nuances include a maple-specific back bracing profile and a special seasoning process for the spruce top called torrefaction, a method of roasting the wood to produce an aged tonal character with greater acoustic resonance and responsiveness.

Other touches include the use of protein glues to optimize the tonal transfer between key wood components and an ultra-thin, 3.5-mil gloss finish to minimize dampening. The special trans red finish gives it more of the rocker vibe. Featured appointments include grained ivoroid Wings fretboard inlays, an inlaid ebony backstrap, ebony binding with ivoroid purfling, an ebony/ivoroid rosette, and a striped ebony pickguard, along with Taylors Expression System 2 acoustic electronics.
